    Lingering Algae

    I am not aware of any areas. I have 5 led lights. I have noticed they get green on occasion. I started a few months ago spraying them out with the hose when I add more water to the pool. The rest of the pool is pretty straight forward (fiberglass).

    Lingering Algae

    I have been fighting a really mild algae problem for the last month and can't seem to figure out why it keeps coming back. I am looking for some wisdom here as this is only my second year. About two months ago I had an algae bloom and went into SLAM mode. I brought it all the way up and held...

    Looking for a Hayward omnilogic expert

    Ok forget the heater, how do I fix the more important problem? Right now everytime it goes into freeze protection, it drains my spa and runs my pump dry cause the deck jets are on when they shouldn't be. I deleted the heater question as to not distract from the real problem.

    Looking for a Hayward omnilogic expert

    Ok so it just dropped down to below 38 which out my automation into freeze mode last night. I'm the middle of the night I heard a really long pump and thought it was full of leaves. This morning I woke to an empty spa so I assume the loud pump was actually the pump running dry. Wonderful...

    SWG vs Chlorine not making sense

    Ok so 2 days ago when I measured fc it was at 12.5. I have had my swg off since then and now I have 11. So, now that it's cooled off, I seem to be losing .75 per day. Before turning it off I was watching my swg a lot more and came to the conclusion that even though I have it scheduled to be...

    SWG vs Chlorine not making sense

    Sorry I got busy with the kids and have just been trying to keep things going. Now that fall is coming in south texas, I find my self always over chlorinating. I am going to have to start messing with it again. Currently I have the SWG working from 10am to 1pm at 30% and am having to turn...

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    I upped the FC as pool math said to. It was up about 28 for a few days. Last night I didn't add any fc before bed and it dropped from 21.5 to 20, so I think I'm good. Pool has been clear for 3 days now and I've been running my bot like crazy. I'm going to slowly let the FC fall now. It...

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    My I added more conditioner after I tested cya last time. I actually tested it today and it was about 55. I added some to get it to 75.

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    When you say it's a good idea to bump it up, how much do you mean? I was already at 4 to 6 pretty consistently.

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    Is there an issue with running the swcg because of the high chlorine? I just left mine at my normal settings. Should I turn it off?

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    I dropped the pH to 7 just to be sure. I've had fc at 20 for 2 hours now. I have my swcg running as well and I only had to add more bleach the first 30 min so far.

    Noob:Algae with good test results

    I'm sure this is an easy fix but I'm not sure why I have algae to begin with. My fc has been at about 5 for months now. I checked cc and I was less then 0.5. below are my latest results. I plan to slam it today after I go get more bleach. Thanks ahead...

    SWG vs Chlorine not making sense

    Last night it was down to 4 FC. I have some guests coming Wed, so I am going to try to maintain by bumping 30 min. Once they leave, I will try to do a study to see how much it actually drops in one day.

    SWG vs Chlorine not making sense

    You are correct, that was a typo on my part. I'll correct it above. That is actually a good thought. I was going to check it again tonight to see if it dropped at all. If it does, I can increase the time to get it up again and just turn it off to see how much it drops. Thanks for the...

    SWG vs Chlorine not making sense

    So, I have had my pool installed for a few months now and have been slowly dialing my SWG in over time. Keep in mind my pool is shaded most of the day. It only gets direct sun from about 10am to 4pm (estimate I haven't actually looked). I started out with running my SWG at 70% for about 10...

    White flakes only in corners not on waterline

    Keep in mind, I am still a noob here. I will post my poolmath tests in a second. I have had my pool stable for a month or two now with the water always being clear. I haven't had to add anything but stabilizer, salt, and muriatic acid. Since I started, I have seen some kind of white...

    Dolphin S200 only runs for 10-15 min

    I just got my S200 about 1.5 months ago from Marina. When I first got it, I watched is several times and I know that it would go for at least an hour. The last few weeks I have been noticing more leaves in my pool. I make sure and clean out my skimmer and my s200 baskets. Yesterday, I was...

    Concrete Sealers & Non-Slip Additives

    Bump for more opinions. I just finished my new pool. My concrete was great before sealed but now it's like a slip and slide. My contractor said he uses acrylic slip resistant sealer. He said it might take a week to settle down. I'm holding my breath.

    Concrete slippery solution

    Is it something that is rolled on our sprayed? What does it look like? Is it visibly different or just texture?
